Re: Using WindowsTokenRoleProvider with Forms Authentication ...

Hi Joe:
Thank you for responding.

I can't seem to located the code you are referring to on codeplex. Would
you happen to have a link handy?

Cheers,

You might want to check out Ryan Dunn's LDAP-based AD role provider on
CodePlex. It works as a nice compliment to the AD membership provider.

Another option is to use protocol transition logon (new
WindowsIdentity(upnString)) to generate a token for the authenticated user
using their UPN and then perform role checks against that. However, that
requires 2003+ web servers and a 2003 native mode AD forest.

Hi:
Has anybody managed to do this? We have setup forms authentication
to
validate against AD. We'd like to use AD for roles based
authorization.
The documentation on ASP.NET leads me to believe
WindowsTokenRoleProvider is possible only if I use Integrated Windows
Authentication?

Thank you for your help.
